I ventured into the pint-sized (or should I say shoe-sized) Boot Café a few weeks ago with the lovely Carin. It's housed inside a former cobbler's, hence the name. As Paris' smallest cafe, it is petit but perfectly formed, with three tiny tables, a little bar for tempting sweet treats and a wall of shelves displaying fashion magazines (one of the owners works in the industry). We popped in for coffee (they serve Belleville) and cake one saturday to escape the rain.
What it lacks in size, it makes up for in style. There are little green geometric stools, white tiles, posters and art covering one wall, old wooden floors, plants and a pretty blue front. I also love the little wooden crate filled with coconuts (they serve coconut juice - not your usual offering in Paris!) But the best thing? It's just a short walk from my studio.
What's your favourite cafe in Paris?

ReplyDeleteHi Marissa,
ReplyDeleteYour pictures are beautiful! I especially loved your Jardin du Palais Royal photos from earlier - what kind of camera do you use? I will be traveling to Paris this summer and I can't wait to use my camera.

Hi Fiona, thanks for your comment and kind words! I use a Canon 650D it's not the best on the market, but does the job ;) and yes Paris is perfect for plenty of photo-taking, enjoy!
DeleteParis is so gorgeous, you make me really want to live there!
